Flying with you, sister

"This is what the Lord says to me: "I will remain quiet and will look on from my dwelling place,
like shimmering heat in the sunshine, like a cloud of dew in the heat of harvest."
NIV Isaiah 18:4

Awakened this morning to pretty sunshine
Looked and behold she had brought me some wine
My sweet darling sister who lives far away
Said brother, I love you and hope you're okay.

My heart shouted praises to God, above
Joy overflowed from her bundle of love
She is so special, I love her so much
And dream of the day when our noses touch.

Come little sister; take hold of my hand
Fly with me upwards to heaven's sky land
We'll soar like songbirds as we claim all highs
Flying together, in God, through all skies.

As our kindred spirits live in God's breast
In Love, God created, we'll try for our best
And joyfully teach the whole world to care
Loving each other in God, as we share.

Flying with you, sister, in God's pure Love

Thank you, Sandra for your wonderfully kind words. God called me to write poetry. And now everything I do and say emanate from the Spirit of God being in me. So I guess I never think of my writing as having two subjects.

I think of all of my poetry just coming from God within me.

Thank you again for your kind thoughts.

Newell darling boy this is outstanding truly awesome. I thought it was soooooooo good. Sometimes a poem speaks volumes this does. You obviously listen to yourself, and I’m listening to this poem it sings to me. This shows you how close you and your sister are and I love it. I wish I had written this I really do. Poetry doesn’t get much better. Well, it does but you have to write it

YOU really are an outstanding writer. No one ever writes like you do, YOU are superb

Is this good? Does the earth spin in space and time? Do birds sing? Does the sea always touch the shore? Yes? Then YES this is utterly utterly fabulous

:Love and warm stuff

O Kathleen! It is wonderful to see you posting, again. And I truly adore your real name, Kathleen. It is so beautiful. I now anxiously await your new posts. You write with such beauty and honesty. And your work is very inspiring to me, and to other poets, I am sure. Please share it.

Have a lovely day as you continue to enjoy God's healing.

Marsha, darling girl.

I bow my head in deep humility as I read your glorious words of praise. Indeed you honor me above and beyond all my human abilities. Only God, above is deserving of such praise. And I believe that when you speak them to me, in reality you are speaking of HIM, in me, not me.

Marsha, you are so very, very special. All of my words have departed. All I can say is that I love you, dearest Mushy.

Thank you, Karen, for your priceless words. I dearly enjoy your visits, and your hugs make me feel nice and warm all over.

And I adore your poetry, as well. And you know I am always looking around for you up there in the heavens. Some day, perhaps, we'll meet at your favorite star. Wheee!

Newell,
what a beautifully touching poem. I'm not sure about the noses meeting though, maybe it's a local custom.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Thank you, Keth for your kind thoughts. Touching noses is just someting to do between kissing cheeks and chins. Just a silly way to tease someone I love.
